Définition
- Hormone therapy or hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the use of the hormones estrogen and progesterone by women to alleviate various “natural” mental and physical discomforts associated with menopause. The wide use of HRT has helped medical-ize menopause, thus turning a nonmedical problem into a deficiency disorder. [Source: Encyclopedia of Gender and Society; Hormone Therapy]
